Do you have a pitching line on Prior and a pitch count?

Remember last year, when he started his rehab in A ball with the Lansing Lugnuts ? I can honestly say that is in the top 5 most stupid, if not THE most stupid I've seen the Chicago media act. For days and days before the game, the Cubune was hyping it, and even giving directions to the stadium and how to buy tickets to a Lugnuts game. The day he pitched, the Score sent some one, Offman I think, to COVER THE GAME, AND GIVE UPDATES EVERY HALF HOUR !!!! FOR A FRIGGIN' REHAB START IN AN "A" BALL GAME !!!!! This year, notice how there's considerably less coverage ? That's the way it should be; but the lowered expectations on the team this year, due to, among other things, last years choke job, when they were supposed to go 162-0 and of course, win the World Series, are a big reason why there's no hype.

The good news, however, is he broke bread for all his teammates after the game.

Final Score:

Albuquerque 7
Iowa Cubs 5

Been listening to the game on the KXNO AM 1460 Des Moines internet radio.

Stats:

Prior: 87 pitches (55 strikes)
11 hits
2 back to back walks

All 7 runs were Earned making for an awful ERA.

They had Prior on after the game and made it sound like its a done deal that he's going back to Chicago to pitch for the Cubs. That sounds like fun.....for the other team.
